London in quarantine
Easter Sunday in London means longer time off work to enjoy a longer weekend with beautiful weather. However, given the lockdown that is currently underway, Easter 2020 underwent a drastic change of plans...
Despite the unfortunate circumstances that have triggered the lockdown, I’ve welcomed the changes quarantining has bought; a slower change of pace, a simpler routine, a return to repetitiveness and reassessing things that really matter, that including going back to basics to enjoy simpler pleasures…an opinion that I might be alone in sharing. As we were only allowed to be out for an hour a day for exercise, we managed to walk some scenic streets of Notting Hill in London and invest some time in home cooking (such as homemade raspberry sorbet, strawberry and coconut smoothie, homemade oat cookies, freezing grapes - which isn’t cooking but taste so much bette than ice lollies). From the colourful London town houses, food snaps and street photography (which features a close up of a blossom tree that’s currently on every person’s instagram feed), this post captures the very definition of what Things that make me stop walking is all about; stopping every couple of minutes to uncover some hidden beauty in your surroundings (much to my husband’s dismay).
